QCD knob ranges and detents #34

Open spacejoey86 opened 2 weeks ago

spacejoey86 commented 2 weeks ago

In hardware, a key feature of the QCD is the potentiometers with detents for every division/multiplication. I think this should be replicated in the VCV version, such that the knob visibly snaps to each value, and the tooltip shows the division/multiplication value (/32 to x16) instead of the current 0-1.

In addition the range of the attenuverters should be -1 to 1 in the tooltip. (this probably applies to other modules too).

These changes will make the modules easier to use in VCV.

Good idea. There are several modules that use knobs like this:

I think the VCV thing to do is enable "snap" and give them a list of labels for each position. There is a feature for this coming in MetaModule hardware, so it would make sense to pair them together (requires update to the base element types)
